ARCHBISHOP SPALDING. His VISIT TO WASHINGTON. AN OVATION. IMPOSING DISPLAY. THE PROCESSION. INTERESTING CEREMOMIES AT ST. MAT- THEW’S CHURCH. THE ADDRESSES. SES"P4ATHY FOR THE POPZ. THE KING OF ITALY DENOUNCED. THE GEORGETOWN COLLEGE WELCOXE, As is well known, Archbishop Spalding, of the diocese of Baltimore, recently returned from Rome, being a delegate to the Ecumenica? Council, and one ef the most prominent par- ticipants therein, having acted as a member of the committee on cons’itutiode fide, and his return to his flock was looked torward to with great in- terest. His views in favocor the “ intailibility dogma” were interpreted as the reflection of the sentiment of American Cathol.cs voted in the great body of which he was a member, he being the archbishop of the old=*: > in Amer- ica. He resurned within the past two wr o\s and at once an invitation was extendou ‘o him by the students of George‘own bry As the Archbishops ef this dlocess, as wel! as others and their safragana, always approciate the merit and value of such visits ag th»s3, the in- vitation was accepted at once, whic, being duly mentioned in Tar Stan, advantage was taken by the various District societies of the Catholic persuasion to lend @ helping hand. Meetings were held in the different pa:ishes, committe *s were appointed, and every ching ar- ranged for a grand demonstration to the Arch- bishop of Baltimore, on the occasion of th’) visit.

Matthew's church. When the head of the procession ar- rived at St. Matthew's church, ue line was halted. and the Mot Reverend Archbisaop and cletgy advanced to the front porticues, where the add-ess was read. The route was a perfect ovation, but nowhere was it more visible than on F street. First paseing tae souch portico of the Patent Office building the steps were alive with young and old, and then farther on were the male and female 1 ans ranged in rows on the grassy slope of old S*. Patrick’s church lot. The orphans waved their handkerchiefs in un- tiring style. H street, from 14th to Irth. to- gether with the side streets leading thereto, was one perfect jam. AY 8T. MATTHEW'S CHURCH, The crowd began to asse.nble in front of the church et about nine o'clock, and asthe pro- cession was expected to arrive at ten o'clock, the assemblaze became quite dense at taat bour, and filled the street in front of the church, extending for some distance on either side, on i5th street. The crowding for good positions by the spectators towards the porehy y was a great annoyance, and kept Lieut. Eckiof and bis force of policemen on the Jump constanth to keep the stops clear, as none were ac'mitte there, and nove inside the church until after the arrival of the procession, except members of the choir or the orchestra and others officially assoc'ated with tue church. ‘ho-e who were fo-tunate enough to hold tickets to the choir 0° seats early, hut were debarred from wit- neseing the imposing display of the procession on its arrival at the church, which was about nova. Re PFOORATIONS AT TRR CHURCH. The decorations at the church were yery tae: fully arranged. On the outside, the coi- ums in front were wound w:th evergreen wreaths from top to bo'tom, with the samo nanging in festoons between the pillars, and in the center of the portico was formed an arch of evergreens interwoven with fresh flowers, on the keystone of waich was placed the Arch- bisnop’s golden miire. On each side of the porchway was stationed s:andard- evs—the one on the right with the American _b.nner, and the one on the le:t with the Pont ticat colos—a white fiaz, sumou ” * with gold fringe and wiia the and c.ss keys inthe center, surmounted golden cross on the end of the staff. Avove the column? and on th? center of the architrave was fixed a cross in evergreens and tlower?. unde~neath which was an inecription in large gold leitors, extending acrors the entire width of the pori.co, “Ix moc Steno Vinces.” Circular wreat?s wore placed on each side of this c-oss, and also above the doorway at the enc.ance of the church. The Interior decoratiors w re confined ¢1 tirely to the aitar, which w 2s p-o.asely embe! shed with vas’; filled with rare flowers. The Are4bishop’s throne wes on the lett side from tbe entrance, and near the pulpit. It was smali, semicivcular platfo:m, covered with a rich carpet, and over head wr) fixed a beautiful canopy Of crirson and gold drapery, which. — Aatinr Tear of fay on ; formed foea of niche- recers, in wi Was p the gilded chair, upbolste-ed with rich purple cloth. THE RECEPTION AT THE CHURCH. Considerable detention took place on the ar- rival of the precession be-ore the line could pass, the sireet being blocked up, and the mounted men had to a] most ride over some, in Opening the way for the harouches containing the Archbishop, slerey and Jay dignitaries who were to part cipate in the ceremonies. Finally the carriage drove re with the Archbishop, who, with uncovered head, bowed benignly to ine Gense and eager throng as be Seety ee. proached the s*>ppin_ stone. Afterhe alighted he was at orco sorrounded by the clergy, and €scor*-d up the earpcted steps to the door way, where he was invested with the rol>s of Li= office, and Mr. J. Carreli Brent delivered THE ADDRESS OF WELCOME as follows: ‘Cpon anpointment and on behalf of the Catholic laity of Washington and Georgetown, I have the honor and signal privilege, unwortit though tht honor be bestowed, of ex ending in bebalfof your flock, their hearty ard sirceze welcome on this your first virit to this portioa of Your diocese since sour retarn {rem the Holy City. ~ Phe display on this occasion, ard the crowds that vou have een pi'cd up before you, the en- thus‘asm of those who witressed your trium- phant procession through the avenues and Sireets Of the meiropolis, all ren’er words on my part to impre the venera.ion which the¥ tee! tor the dignity of the prelate, and the -entiments of siection. of werm and bearty aitachment tuey ave for the virtues, the graces. and the n-er'ts of the wan.

The only thing E can plead is, that I honestly wi hed, in general, to do my and to promote the spiritual welfure of rge, and most reepectable flock which Almighty God bas committed to m: charge. But there is one, Mr. Brent, and Catholics of this great metropolis of the g catert ration on the face of God® earth—(aj plause,) there is one who is worthy of all our’ love, of all veneration, avd 1 may add, ef ‘all our sympathies. One who is row really a prisoner: he io whom 5. 2,%0,000 Obrisi'ars look up to with reverence and with love; a prisoner that little terriory—that litile Di: -rict of Co- jumbia—the lit'e neuiral boly soil, which he held as neutral ground belonging to’ ali Chris- Hans—that 1s, to 290,000,0°9 of Christians. He has teen seized upon, and under such circum: stances an outr-ce fully as great as it this Dis- triet of Columbia, which belongs to the United States of Ame. 'ca, were seized upon and the President imprioned by a neighboring Siate which happened to tind it to 118 converience to possess itself of this territory. Pius 1X. merits all our love, merits 4!l our sympathy, and I trast that, asin Baltimore, so al in this great me- tropolis we, his spiritual children, looking only to the freedom of his intercourse as the spiritual father of £00,(0,000 of Christians, will assert the principles of that free¢om which canrot be guarante-d him unless he be inde- ndent of any other sovereignty; uninfluenced 9 any of the complications uf modern politics. Now, all Europe is in commotion, and dearly beloved of the laity I am sure that you will unite with my beloved “ad venerable brethren of the clergy—with all of us—in giving such exe Pression to that reeling as your faith and your good hearts may prompt. ‘Of course, in this there is no interferen.e intended with political relations of melee or any other States.

The honor which you enjoyed by so prominent an associa- tion with that galaxy of intelligence and virtas which shone forth in the Ecumenical Council we teel retiected upon ourselves, for it reminds us of our birthright as Christians that in enter- ing into fellowship with the mystical body of Christ we did not become members of any human organization, liab'e to erro-, corruption and decay, but were affiliated to that Ghurch which is immortal, because it is infallible; a church founded by the Son of God made man, with which he promised to remain all days to the end of time, and against which the gates of hell shall never. prev: life, and guided by the her supreme prospers alike under the smiles the persecutions of enemies. As loyal children we Tejoice inher joys aud sympathize in her trials. And now that her angus ruler, the magnanimous Piux IX.,has been assailed by the shafts of the enemy, and in the desecra* name of liberty and progress has been despoiled of his temporal dominion, and stripped of that independence which is necessary for the free exercise of his exalted functions, and for un- trammeled influence with his two bundred mii- lions of children throughout the gloh=. the whole Catholic world teels the outrage which has been committed agai him, and through him ainst religion and society. He, in b-» spirit- wal chara and temporal headship, was the only subsisting illustration in modern times of the normal state of Christian society, that is, of the perfect accord between the natural and supernatural order. But an impious hand has for a moment overthrown this model structure. On wz and zeal entitle him, this occasion, therefore, which reminds us that you, most reverend sir, and yonr illustrious colleagues in the Eeumenieal Council, have been compelled to suspend your proceedings, by the same sacrilegious violence and wholesale robbery that have invaded the Panal territory, we cannot but litt up our voice with one accord and in earnest tones to protest against the iniguity, and we deem the present a fitting moment, with your permission, to make a public declaration of the sentiments wh'- the gravity of the afore-mentioned circumstances must nat- urally inspire. But, most Reverend Archbishop, allow ua to assure you that, whether you are here sur- rounded by a loyal and affectionate fleck. yfiving life and energy to every ment of your spiritual administration, nt from us on a wider theater of usefulness, opposing yourself as a wall of brass against the latitudinarianism ard infidelity of the , you will always be the ol ject of our profound veneration and devoted atiachment. REPLY OF THE ANCHRISHor, The Reverend Archbiskop in reply said: Rev. Dr. White and venerable clergy of the Disirict, I return you my most heartfett thanks for your cordial greeting on my return. I thank you for your. I fear, too par estimate of the little that I was able to do in the Ecumenical Coun- cil. True, 1 was placed in positions of consid- le responsibility by the eoverei pontift, an nearly 8C0 of my colleagues, but I was only ons of many, and I felt there less than I ever f1t in all my life. When a man is one of nearly a thousand, when among the Archviehops he ranks No. 131, as I did, of course it makes us feel how small we are. I never felt so little when in the centerot London or Paris. I thank you venerable brethren, and I hope that as our Telations have always been very god that they will continue to become even more intimate, and that we will all continue to labor in unison for the greater glory of God and the salvation of souls. 1 will add to what I said at the door, least there should be any misund:rstanding on reflection. That is in reference to what you were kind enongh to ray about the present position of the Soverign Pontiff, I wish to pat this case: Supposing that three or four States, or one State,Maryland even, or Virginia, should come here and seize the District of Columbia and throw a guard arourd the White House grounds and ray to the Prerident, “Oh, you are iree, perfectly free, you can write or corre- nd, but ail’ such correspondence has to pass through our hands.” To the departments, to the post office, “you are free, bui recollect we bave to superintend your freedom. You can communicate with the whole of the United States, but all that you send must first pass through our bands. We will disperse your Con- gress, as ihat is no use.” That is exactly what these pretended lovers of liberty in Italy have dore. They dispersed the Corgress of Christen- dom, composed of nearly 00 bishops, drove them bome, and imprisoned the president, and then they think that he is simple erough to io- lieve that he is tree. Free, with a mounted guard all around the Vatican palace. { when he has not been able to go out intot city once since the 20th of September tor fear being insulted. He ks only in his own garcen.

The ad- drestes all had the great merit of brevity, and the musical programms was arranged wit same commendable regard for the comfort of their guest. so that the exercises were closed in about an hour after they commenced. The yocal and instrumental music, by the College Band, under the direction of Prof, J. ©. Foerteca, at the openirz and close of the exer- cises and between the addresses, was excellent as usual; a violin solo by Mr. Paul Neary, Georgia boy, being s noticeable feature. TRE SALUTATORY was by Mr. Dennis Sheridan, who, after bidding the Archbishop welcome to Georgetown Col- lege in the name of her faculty and students, and congratulating him on havin, i the perils of an ocean voyage, andon the hon- orable and important duties assigned him in the Ecumenical Counsel, proceeded as follows: “The events whicu preceded your return, and which indeed oecasioned it, have cast a shadow | over the oP, we experience to-day. The break- ing out of the war in France has given a long desired opportunity to the enemies of our holy | religion to attack the temporal power of the Pope, and wrest {-om bis sway the last remnant of the territory of the church. Only too well have they succeeded in their nefarious designs. Kome has falien. The solemn session of the FEeumenicai Council has veea interrapted, the ave and reverend pro’ -ss who composed it p meter and the vicar oi Cbrist imprisoned in his palace, wale the shrines and temples of his divine master are des, d and outraged by bis enemies. In the row with which these evils have filled our hearis, it is some svlace to believe with the Holy Father bimeeif that they re but the misfortunes of an hour, which God permitted in order to try the devotion of His cbikiren, and that holy church, reiined and puritied by the fires of persecution, will come torth from this struggle more glorious than ever. As we cannot approach, nor even communicate directly with the Holy Father in his afflictions itis a satisfaction to us to declare our dutiful love and devotion in your presence as his nearest representative. in conclasion, | Most Reverend cir, whilst we pray that God may add many years to the lite you have de- voted to hissetyice, ws ber, as a special favor, that when you a<ain =e face to face with Pius LX you will teli him of the sentiments ot filial love and sympathy that animate bis chil- dren of Gcorgetown College.” The next three declamatiors were in LATIN, PRENCH, AND GERMAN. The first was a latin m “Pastor Nauta,” by Albert W. Madigan, who gave fall effect to the stately measure and sonorous phrases of the language of the church. The next, an easay “An Concile C:cumenique,” (French) by Thos. A. Badeavx, who has the {rue oraterical style.

Bouglass. Tt wasa poem of thirtern stanzas, and was delivered in etyle. The jast forms. address of the evening was “qH STUDENTS PROTEST AND OFFERING,” by Mr. G. Gordon Posey, who said: Most Reverened Sir :—Perhaps to some it May fem presumptuous in us mere students and striplings to a.tempt, even by way of ‘Bro: "st, the discussion of uts which, by their magpvitade and ext-nt, embrace the interests not only of Catholicism, but of the worid. But We coi sicer that we are members of one great family amd that when the head and father ot this, ovr family, is menaced with destruction or treated wath eprepien = and disrespect, that not only have we a right, but are bound in duty to raise our voices, fc zble though they be, to swell the solemn protest rising from TWO RUNDRED MILLION CATHOLIC REARTS throughout the world, against the dastardly, unprovoked and unwarrantabdle outrages in- flicted upon onr Holy Father, the Pope, by the minions of fanaticism and infidelity under the leadership ot Victor Emanuel. And of all the expressions of sympathy now going up to the Holy Father we tee! confident that not the least cheering is the profession of strong faith and earnest attachment offered by the Catholic uth, for it shows to him and to the world that e rising generation is not whoily imbued with poiton of infidelity and inditierention, but that they cling with unswerving devotion to the traditions of their fathers and the tenets of their faith. Therefore the stadents of this col- lege in mass ic -t ng us-ciabled have’ adopt2d the following prean.oie and resolutions, which they submit te theapproval of your grace, with the request that you wll forward them to his Holiness, together with this little offering. ‘The preambie and resolutions set forth that ‘3 absolutely necessary to the right direction of @ religious body that it. acad be ieft wholly untrammeled and free in his actious, and we regard any departure trom tis principle as an outrage on the rights of conscience, and have be held With sorrow auc ind.gnation the forcible seizure of tihe Papal Stutes by the Italian Gov- ernment in violation of the plighted faith of the laws of the nations: thereiore R-soleed, bat we the students of G orgetown College, District of Columbia, in mass meeting assem- bied, do pec | enter our solemn protest against the system and spoliation and robbery inangu- rated by the Italian Government, and in par- ticular ‘by its unscrupulous ruler, Victor Em- manvel; that we resent as an indignity to our- selves as Catholics the sacrilegious outrages practiced on the person of the Holy Father; that we regard the action of the usurping authorities in ch the college of Rome as an indication of a sprit hostile to the cause of edu- cation and progress; that we invite the students of all the Caibolic institutions of the country to join us in tendering to the Pope the expression of our deepest rer page} for his afiictions, and our unsbaken devotion to bis cause; that whereas actions are of more import.ince than words, we hereby determine to raisea fund for the relief of the ‘emporal n-ceesities of the Holy Father, and hope that the youth of America will co- operate with us in this good work. {Signed by the Students.] THE LITTLE OFFERING here referred to was $209 raised by the stadents tor the Pope. Mr. Pesey was very happy in his manner of waking the presentation, and after handing the rchment copy of the resolutions, and the ofter- ing to the Archbishop, said with a little hesi- tancy, it might not be exactly opportune, but he bad a little requ-st to make on behalf of the students. Would he, with the approval of their worthy President, allow the bi ‘A HOLIDAY on Saturday ne: t? ‘The Arch bishop.—Certainly, certainly; you can have a uolidsy on Saturday.” The applause was loud and prolonged, the students evidently regarding this as the best speech of the evening.
